The deconstruction of superheroes is the most overused and predictable trope in comic book history. From watchmen to invincible, and all that crap inbetween by obsessed tryhards like garth ennis, warren ellis and rick veitch. How come this shit still sells, after 50 years of shameless uninventiveness?
A true deconstruction of superheroes would detail 1) how society changes to account for them and 2) how they cope (or don't) with their changes.

>>153052991>>153063692But wasnt plutonian fucked up since conception? That kinda undermines the other shit that happened to him, other evil superman like scion works because he wasnt human at all to begin with
>>153058938Mark Waid wrote Kingdom Come as a "reconstruction" of classic idealistic superheroes and to send up the whole edgy 90s era. Do you think we'll get something like this now in the age of The Boys and Invincible?

Can you imagine getting sucked off by Brianna and Codie in the /co/mic store bathroom?

>>153061518I don't get this comment. Can somebody explain?
LCS thread? I’ve got two, but I want to focus on one for this post. >store is in a super poor neighborhood right next to the bougiest place in existence. Like 80% black but sometimes gets richer quiet kids in too>Comic Book Guys are mostly replaced with ghetto dudes at 200% volume yelling about Absolute or other DC stuff (mostly Flash or Superman for power level autism reasons)>ironically, the shop itself is a lot more professional >two floors of clean shelves, well-kempt atmosphere, polite staff, even a spruced-up kids section. Staff are 90% from the richer area but still nice>recent anniversary sale was, for some reason, almost entirely attended by older dad-looking guys from the richer place>quiet, pasty white, either wearing plain t-shirts and khakis or full-on merch get-ups with little in-between>ghetto dudes showed up as usual but they were like 15% of overall attendance>dads actually try to strike up conversation, tend to stick to the older bins and form little groups>ghetto guys swarm around the newer bins and kind of yell into their own little bubble, don’t really talk to anyone and get touchy if you try to go near their bins>meanwhile dad-looking guys are either quiet or actively encouraging some of the outliers to come look at the older stuff>wonder if I’ve just gotten unlucky with regular store clientele and only show up when the ghetto guys get there on accident>return to the store a few days laterComment too long.

>>153063667wanted to bump. i had some arabian superman comics and Spawn in bulgarian from my ex stepfather. feel bad i can't support co much
>>153063667Haven't bought comics in a while.
ivy league assholes ironically ruined my experience sucking up to people
>>153063667buying comics is a legitimate waste of money
>>153067358How so?
How the fuck do I get copies of Tatjana Wood‘s original Swamp Thing colours? Are scans of single issues my best bet? Also, recolour thread.
>>153065301There are certainly some factors like that, but not in the way you think, this is just the comic industry having shaky management and confused standards.
>>153065301That's just capitalism baby
>>153059908they were right about the first part no idea whats ironic about blue and white in your eurotrash fairytales
>>153066429>eurotrash fairytalesHe says in a swamp thing thread
>>153066429>>153067299Shut up, faggots.
Time for some silliness!
>>153063622I just don't find him funny. I didn't like Annihilation at all. His art is alright, but he has this weird flat perspective that doesn't look that great.
>>153061460This>>153050988Not this
>>153065263?
>>153066768Exactly.
>>153047557I’m impressed this made it to print, it’s literally just entire issues shitting on editorial for constantly failing
I kinda wanna watch pic related because I like some of the character designs but there's a whole bunch of YouTube videos saying how bad the show is. Should I?
>>153066770So cute. He's definitely an enjoyer of comfy sockies.
*Serves soup gayly*
>>153067616I love this faggy moth
It is not a bad show. It is not great, it has a kernel of something good in there, but it is not a bad show. It is just sort of... Meh.

>>153061297Volume 5 Mike was pretty upbeat. It's weird, because end-of-volume-4 era Mike was feeling super guilty, regretful, and resentful over how things turned out with Lucy, but then in volume 5 he's making jokes and is everybody's best friend again. Pic related is Mike's last appearance in volume 4, and his first appearance in volume 5.I also think you're forgetting how Mike was in volume 3-4. He wasn't sarcastic or cutting, he was directly aggressive. December had him yell "FINE, get it over with!" in the middle of class like a weirdo, and later telling Lucy he hated her with tears in his eyes.
>>153065603Agreed, part of what makes me sympathetic to Mike is that he basically never starts the shit. December and the headdesk were a reaction to years of getting shoved around, Eternal Flame was a reaction to Sandy cheating (and super contrived), shoving Gus was a reaction to him trying to drop a nuclear bomb on his social life for no reason. If the people around him stopped starting shit there’d be no shit!
>>153066992I wouldn't call that happy go lucky. A little upbeat and in a healthier frame of mind, sure, but that's also just Mike joshing with Paulo. I think your point about the sharp transition in attitude is valid, just not that it reaches quite such a height.As to the earlier volumes, I didn't forget. Those are the two stand out examples of agression. Outside of those exceptions to the rule, Mike's displeasure with Lucy was expressed as I said.
>>153067413December wasn't an exception to the rule, though. Mike's displeasure was open, aggressive, and hostile for a long while. He (tried to) refrain with Lucy because he knew she was baiting him, but Mike's response when pressured or upset has always been to yell and get pissy.
>>153068189Let's consider the examples from the period post-vacation arc.>immediately after the return but pre-confessionAnnoyed with Lucy and dismissive of her usual behavior. Has to be goaded into arguing after Lucy escalates>immediately post-confessionAnnoyed with Lucy's antics. Spells out his problems with her. No sperging out.>after finding out Lucy ran to Paulo for replacement teddy bear timeSarcastic and bitter. Again, no spergfits.>during Abbey's rant against bullyinggives Lucy a condemning look but says nothing>during a book-only short intermission>pointedly ignores Lucy trying to get his attention on the track and earns a rebuke from TessTo be clear, I've never said that Mike kept his displeasure toward Lucy subtle during this period. But these examples indicate to me a more restrained anger that collapses into those two public and heated displays come December.
Could we have a thread for characters that were designed by this Frenchman?
>>153067555Yeah always good to see you true believers. We’ll have another thread soon enough
>>153067555>>153067815I like all these properties separately, but I feel like the last few threads I saw for each of them eventually petered out.Having this odd amalgam thread with the character designer as the common denominator was just a weird idea, but I’m glad people liked it.
>>153067953LR has had to backpack with other shows since before it came out. Used to share with Ladybug and Star Vs
>>153068084I kind of feel like the other shows here might also benefit from backpacking.We’d kind of have a mascot with the brown-fusion.
"Thong Squad! Ride up!"https://files.catbox.moe/rcnyq5.mp4>Exiled from the Kingdom of Assaheim on the planet of Babeula by her evil aunt Regulita, Princess Cleo and her fat-assed cat maid Flufflepon land on Earth. Bestowing the Thongs of Power onto five ordinary girls, they now fight evil as Thong Squad! Cheeky defenders of justice; they face such foes like Stallion Maximus the Rapehorse, tentacled NEET Megusta, bewitching burlesque dancer Ashe Arcana, and above them all the Dark Kingdom. Led by Queen Regulita they seek to conquer Earth and capture the princess. Leading their forces are the Dark Generals and Thong Void, grumpy goth warrior.https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Fmjj78lYpEI2040ATxfnkcBMiWsyZQOwhttps://co.llection.pics/post/list/Thong_Squad/1FIRST THREAD: https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/148556846/#q148556846>No fetish shaming.

>>153067904No, I don't think we ever talked about that besides that time Pink and Dark had to switch for the initiation ritual.
>>153067959>that time Pink and Dark had to switch for the initiation ritualHow did that go, again?
>>153068119I think it went well. It was part of the synchronization process.
>>153068177Then should it work kind of the same way if other Squad members did the same thing? They feel a close bond with each other, more connected, more in sync to perform complex battle moves?
>>153068230Maybe, sounds like something they need to do in season 2 or 3.
Are they the laziest creators in the business right now?
>>153066208Well I’m not having a guess am I? It’s literally their reason. They’ve already said they don’t want to become Rick and Morty. If you aren’t a total retard you can read the subtext in what that means.
>>153066208>YOU WOULDN'T THROW AWAY ALL THAT MONEY JUST BECAUSE OF 100000s OF ANNOYING AUTISTIC KIDS LATCHING ON TO YOUR WORKYes I would. Hell I would PAY to steer them away.
>>153066208The majority don’t, that’s why you don’t see them focusing on it in public commentary
>>153066255this but unironicallyzach saw the exact kinds of people he made fun of latch onto the show and called it quits early
>>153065910>Now why Zach and Micheal don't want to hire a writers room even though plenty of good cartoons had them and it could help them from getting burnout. I think its just a quality control thing, they want to make sure every joke lands and its hard to find people on the same wave length as them,Almost all of the jokes Zach inserted into the show were either bits he tried out on Oneyplays first, or just lifted from the other Oneyplays guys. Not sure why Zach didn't just hire all them on as creative consultants, or reach out to more Newgrounds guys. Hell, I'm sure even Marc M could've recommended some guys, he's pretty well connected
Here's your first DLC character, bro.
>>153066945>oliver doesn't hate humans in the cartoon>nolan doesn't get the insane redemption arc with debbieLAME
>>153066959In the comic Nolan wasn't as malicious towards humans when he fought Mark it was all just collateral damage. In the show he is actively trying to kill as many people as possible so it makes sense he isn't just instantly forgiven.
>>153066960he wasn't exactly a chill dude though
>>153066959>nolan doesn't get the insane redemption arc with debbietechnically that hasn't happened yet
>>153066943>coolThere's a reason nobody legitimately gives a fuck about Tech Jacket. Now that he's a cute girl people are now paying attention.
